SBE21 Heritage Conference, 14-16 April 2021 (online)

In Europe, historic buildings account for a quarter of the existing building stock. Renovating this kind of constructions - be they farmhouses in remote mountain villages or gems of post-war modernism in metropolitan areas - presents many opportunities for reducing carbon emissions and for improving the comfort of the people living and working inside. However, this can be particularly challenging. Each building is unique and needs specific measures to enhance energy efficiency while preserving historic and aesthetic traits. In this sector, the “one-fits-all” approach hardly applies.

The SBE21 Heritage Conference will bring to Bolzano (Italy) experts working in the fields of energy efficiency and historic building conservation. The conference aims at fostering multidisciplinary dialogues and finding new affordable and efficient retrofit approaches to save our common heritage and guarantee a sustainable future. Scholars and practitioners worldwide are invited to send their contributions.
